As your Winter Springs City Commissioner, I’d like to draw your attention to an important update regarding traffic management in our community.

Starting Monday, we’ll be implementing a speed limit change on Winter Springs Blvd. The speed limit will be reduced from 30 to 25 miles-per-hour from Tuskawilla Blvd. to the city limits. This decision was approved by the Winter Springs City Commission during our regular meeting on March 13.

This change is part of our ongoing commitment to maintaining the safety of our residents. The reduction of the speed limit aims to ensure greater consistency in speed limits along the roadway and to mitigate any potential risks associated with high-speed traffic.

This is one of several safety enhancements we have been implementing along Winter Springs Blvd. since May. Our efforts have also included new asphalt, raised intersections, speed tables, and designated bike lanes to improve road safety and accommodate diverse modes of transportation.

Funding for these safety improvements comes from the one-cent local government infrastructure surtax. We’re committed to putting these funds to good use for the benefit of our community.

As your City Commissioner, I value your safety and wellbeing above all. I encourage you to take note of the upcoming changes and join us in our efforts to create a safer, more harmonious community. Please continue to follow the traffic rules and regulations in place. Let’s make Winter Springs a safer place to live, one step at a time.
